Silver King Basin.

In the center of the basin the Sil- yer King is located, and it has been a study for the past 10 years. Two thou sand feet east of this wonderful depost is the base of the highest altitude noun tain of the basin, and at this point IS plainly to be seen why many rich and poor prospectors in the search of the ex- tension ledge of the Silver King for years pronounce to the world that the King is without companion.
 The geography will illustrate the ques- ton mentioned, the word factor or frac- ton made of any substance, as fraction thereof, 80 the Silver King mine was by the force of the volcanic pressure discon- nected and forced to the west at dis tance of twelve thousand feet from the contact edge or vein. This contact is is the granite at the foot and the chloride of lime on the hanging wall to the east, and can be traced north to the distance of five miles and the south as far as Queen creek, distance of four miles. Drawing line by the compass nine miles, the Silver King IS found to be 2000 feet west of this line, and is dislocated from the same as proved by nature. The Crispin mine to the south with it's native silver, and the South Comstock to the north -by-east 2 degrees from the Cris- pin mine distant 5000 feet where the contact mineral vein is to be seen nine feet in width-is now found the same metallic compound that the Silver King was at one time covered with-and now made fraction of the contact ledge from which it originated. In regard to the aforsaid pressure the surface plainly shows, that the pressure must have been 5000 to 5000 feet below the surface. The developments of the Crispin at a depth of no feet does not show either wall, and nothing but rich milling ore in sight. A map that is now being made will show the geographical situation oi | this more than wonderful basin. The | South Comstock now has nine foot oi ore that will assay in the thousands. These new developments is putting more more vim in the prospector and owners ot claims, and in consequence the camp is bearing more cheerful look.

A New Strike.

One of the most important mining strikes of the year has just been made at Silver King, in the South Comstock mine form erly called the Black Diamond. This property has been recently incorpor- ated bv Messrs. John Havestrom, W. H. Lempker, Louis Edman, Julius Seick and w. J. Toutain, all of Silver King, as the South Comstock Mining Company, with W. H. Lenpker as President and John Havestrom as Sec retary. The strike has opened up a nine-foot body of ore that in every char acteristic resembles that of the Silver King, being fully as high grade if not higher. This discovery sets at rest the future of that camp, which will become the largest and most hourishing mining town in the Territory.

Mir c. o. Eaton will start up his brick yard next week. He has obtained the yard of Messrs. Stone, about one mile west of the court house. He will burn a good size kiln as soon as possi ble, to meet the urgent demand, after which several large kilns will be prepared. As brick is surely destined to become the chief building material of Florence and vicinity it will be seen that MT. Eaton has inaugurated an industry of import ance and one that will prove highly re- muneratlve.

MT. c. W. Lemon cut sample stalk of twenty-acre field of corn on Steve Ramirez's ranch in the valley opposite Florence that measured thirteen feet to the top of the tassle. This growth was made in about two months from the time of planting the seed and it is the second crop this year upon the land, big crop of barley having been harvested early in June. The ears are just beginning to de selop, the stalk bearing five of them. The whole field is nearly of uniform growth and the specimen plucked is but an average one. The field has been un. der constant cultivation for the past twenty years.

 The four non -condensing, high pres sure engines of the Silver King mill that were found necessary when the mill was enlarged from to time, are to be replaced with one large 175 horsepower engine now being built in Chicago. This will ecomonize both fuel and water besides dispensing with the services of several engineers and fremen. Economy and efficiency characterize the present man agment of this company's affairs.

A Marine Picture from Nature.
A very attractive marine view was
presented for the attention and admira-
tion of the passengers over the Califor.
MIA Southern to San Diego on Monday.
The ocean, for the distance the road fol-
lows the shore. was picture. The air
was very clear, no fog to interrupt the
view as far out as it was possible to see
over the water, and the surface of the
Pacific as placid as could be, the swells
breaking on the beach only in gentle
rollers. A large number Of whales, evi.
IDENTIFY on holiday parade, sported
around in all directions, spouting water
and throwing their black bodies and
tails above the surface. A ship under
full sail and the steamship Santa Rosa,
both bound south, finished the splendid
picture. 1t was altogether beautiful.

Mr.. Thomas J. Wilson, for some years
an express messenger, first with the
Adams in the East, and latterly with

Southern between Los Angeles and Bar
stow, has resigned and sought another
field of operations. Mr.. Wilson was be.
guiled by the glow of the boom now
moving the citizens of San Bernardino
to its material profit. SO he withdrew
from the road to become real estate
agent. That he will prosper is very ev-
ident, as all who handle real estate ia-
telligently do.
